Watkins Assorted Food Coloring, 1 Each Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Total Four 0.3 oz bottles, 4 Count (Pack of 1)

I enjoy these as a replacement of regular color dyes. The bottle sizes are about average, and value is fair for money. After all, anything better for us is going to be twice the price. When used for baking the colors run lighter, if you want a darker color then more drops will have to be added. Overall, happy this is an option for colorful desserts.

We wanted to make the change and try these natural food dyes, and they work really well considering the ingredients are natural! Since they are natural, the colors are more pastel or light. You’ll need to up the amount for richer color. Nonetheless, the colors are still true to their color. The bottles are durable and are conveniently sized as other brands I don’t mind the lighter colors so I am not sure how much you’ll need for that, but they are lasting. :)

I was looking for a better alternative to the regular food dye in the stores and came across this. I knew ahead of time that the colors were very light, so I’m okay with it. But if you are looking for bright, vibrant color, this is not the product for you!

We limit the amount of dyes our kids consume so this year while doing our Christmas sugar cookies we decided to try these no artificial colors food coloring and it was much better then expected! They made the cookies taste better in my opinion and looked so adorable all while not having to worry about feeding the kiddos junk! The kids loved using them to decorate their very own cookies they were able to mix their own even super easy! 🥰 We used some of the food coloring to a cake to add some red and it baked really well didn’t make a difference the red was a little hard to get to a dark color but other then that they are great! Everything from the full good sized bottles, easy to use, nicely sealed to the beautiful colors on our cookies was wonderful, We really appreciate these being an option at good quality and a great price!

My toddlers have recently become fans of colored water play. Since they often drink some of the water too I wanted something “natural”. These seemed great, but the colors are weird. When I put a drop into an empty container it appears to be the color of the lid, but when I add water the color changes. Red becomes purple, green becomes neon yellow, and yellow becomes dark orange. (Blue is fine). They’re fine for what they are and maybe if you mixed them into frosting they’d stay the color they should be.

We have used these for every holiday, and birthday party! While you have to use a little bit more because they are all natural and don’t stick as well as the artificial dyes, they are well worth it! I don’t have to worry about my kiddos, ingesting chemicals, and the colors are vibrant and welcoming!

I bought these as a dye free option for 2 Cookie Decorating classes I taught yesterday for Valentines Day. Everyone so appreciated the dye free option. I used them in Buttercream Frosting and thought the colors were beautiful. They are more on the pastel side and I had to use alot but I had purchased 2 sets so it was no problem. I would definitely buy these again.
